AFTER THE BREWERS.

The Commissioner of Internal Revenue
Proposes to Find Out What Brewers i'm
the Country are Adulterating Their Prod
uct by Chemical Analysis.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 4.-Commissioner
Miller of the Internal Revenue Bureau, in
an interview yesterday, explained how he
proposes to analyze the beer made in this
county. ~ intend" he said, sto have
the beer now being sold throughout the
country tested to determine its puri-
ty or impurity. We have an
excellent chemist, and he is getting
ready to make the tests. We shall not call
upon the breweries respectively for sam
Piles. We will purchase samples Of retail
dealers, and will label each one distinctly.
In that way we will get the beer just as it
is on the market. OF course, we will not
undertake to analyze samples Of all the
breweries in the country at once. We will
purchase samples here and there through
out the country, and they will be sent
here. The chemist can, perhaps, analyze
forty different samples in a day. The
work will be prosecuted from time to time.
As there will be no system for procuring
the beer, no brewer will be able to tell
when his product is to be ex-
amined. By these official tests
the purity of the beer put on the market
will be determined. So much has been
published of late in regard to the adultera-
ton of beer that it is deemed necessary 0
make these official tests for the protection
of the public.

no poison of any nature in the uncook sd
meat. In the cooked meat, however, he
found large quantities of arsenic.

who were also afflicted, are recovering.

Davis, wealthy farmer, living near Nam
ticoke, left Nanticoke for home about dark

wife was aroused shortly after midnight

the edge of the lumber. In making turn
his neck was caught between the wheel
and the lumber and severed from the
body. The head was found about two
miles from the house.

ing a less rate in similar services, for q
long than short haul over it's lines be-

and Chicago The commission decided
that the rates were illegal, and ordered
the company to cease charging more for
short than for long hauls. The commis-

WASHINGTON, Sept. 22.-The bond call
issued at midnight by Assistant Secretary
of the Treasury Thompson is said, on good
authority, to have resulted from instruc-
tions from the President. It has been his
desire for several days to have fixed
price announced by the Government for
the various classes of bonds, and late last
evening he determined to have his idea
carried out. This sudden call was quite
unexpected, as it was asserted yesterday
that no action would take place until the
return of Secretary Fairchild to Washing
